This is the famous ‘Trollveggen’ in Romsdal. The highest ‘free fall’ in Northern Europa with more than 1800 meters. Unfortunately the weather wasn’t the best, but at least we got a picture!

It’s an always impressing wall of rock. I was (also in 2004) at the camping place on the foot of the wall. One morning we were woken by huge thunder because of a huge “stensprang”. As we looked outside the tent we saw a big dust cloud.

That is ‘normal’! Look at all the ‘gravel’ underneath the wall! Where do you think it’s all been coming from? From the wall itself, of course, but I admit it’s a bit scary to stay the night in a tent such as you did? However, the rocks have all remained underneath the wall, right? And it will probably stay that way for a long time unless a large part of the wall
will tumble . . .

And people keep throwing themselves off the cliff even if it is prohibited! When people from time to time crash into the cliff face and get stuck, they must be rescued!
But with the winds along the cliff face, it’s a very risky business, and these rescue workers do have families!
